The following excerpt was added to the constitution in 1868: "all persons born or naturalized in the united states, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the united states and the state wherein they reside. no state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the united states; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." which of these statements does the quote above overrule?

The quote from the Constitution in 1868 above about "All persons born or naturalized in the United States " overrules this quote: The correct answer is A.  "The only two clauses in the Constitution that point to the [black] race treat them as persons whom it was morally lawfully to deal in as articles of property and to hold as slaves."
